A good book for people who love the beach. It would make a good coffee table book. I was disappointed in the lack of depth offered by the text. I was hoping for more in depth geologic information, and a greater variety of stones pictured. This is not the book for you if you want an in depth look at geologic process and the mineral composition of stones that wash up on the beach. | Great addition for any rock collection! | Customer Rating: | | My Husband and I loved this book so much that we bought 3 and gave away 2 as gifts. |
